I’m a Lucky Duck.

Hyperion has done me a huge service by making MARY’s packaging so very beautiful (if creepy stuff can be beautiful?)

The first picture is the dust jacket versus the “naked” book:

The second is the back. Here’s the beauty there–my editor says to me, “Did you see the bug on the back of the book?” I thought she meant error, but no. She meant actual bug. I stripped the jacket off and lo, there is an insect scuttling across my book. Subtle and very cool.

Hi! I’m Hillary.

My YA debut MARY: The Summoning, a YA Horror retelling of the Bloody Mary myth, sold at auction to Hyperion and hit number two on the New York Times e-book bestseller list. I've also published THE AWESOME with Ravenstone under the name Eva Darrows, which received starred reviews in both Kirkus and PW.

My next three publications are an adult horror novel in the GODS & MONSTERS series for Solaris, due out in December of 2016. Spring of 2017 will see the YA contemporary DEAD LITTLE MEAN GIRL under the name Eva Darrows published through Harlequin Teen. Fall of 2017 sees the YA horror THE WAGON WITCH'S APPRENTICE under Hillary Monahan through Delacorte/Random House.
